Shattered Hearts
(2024)Knox and Wendy's Story
(The first book in the Shattered Love series)
A novel by J E Parker
Former Navy SEAL. Brooding Single Dad. Small Town Grump.
And the man determined to protect her no matter the costs.
My life consists of a road map of scars, battles fought in the shadows that left me and my teenage daughter fighting to pick up the pieces. For years, I’ve kept my distance from others, haunted by loss and regret. But Wendy Rowan, with her two little girls and bogus cover story of a cheating ex-husband, is a temptation I’ve fought hard to resist.
Then comes the night that changes everything.
Standing amid the flames and ash, there’s no more distance or denial of the truth I’ve suspected all along. My obsessive need to protect Wendy from the vengeful past she’s running from awakens something primal within me. Without a second thought, I tie her to me with a proposal she can’t refuse.
“Marry me, and I’ll keep you safe.”
What starts as a marriage of convenience soon turns into something more when Wendy ends up in my bed, beneath me. Teetering on a dangerous precipice, we start to fall, finding peace in one another's arms. But as her secrets emerge and my demons resurface, we're faced with a truth that could either cement our love, healing our shattered hearts…
Or it will destroy us entirely, leaving nothing but ruin in its wake.
